Grausam trickles of snow.

It is unheimelig in "The architect". The Alps drama tells how a whole family in front of a beautiful snow scene even mangled. A cruel film from the chilly winter Horror Country of citizenship education.

 

The grace of the snow is really immeasurable: Soft cover, he fears the people, dampens their aggression and transforms social battlefields in silent white landscapes. But not in this film. If it snows, then it does absolutely ruthless. Because with each flake is getting to the tragedy.

Ironically, winter is the family, which is in the little cozy Alpine drama "The Architect" is where the icy landscape so artfully as to consistently metaphor for the broken Miteinander collected. Nothing moves, only the snow falls and falls and falls.

And that is exactly the nightmare, the head of the family of George Winter (Josef Bierbichler) repeatedly hit is. Because he sees himself dead on the street eingeschneiten his home village, verreckt on the run from his own home.

Understandable that he after all these years of absence is not as happy to return home birth. Georg in Hamburg, is a successful architect, because he is Lord of transparent large construction projects in large port city of Hamburg. But here in the Alpine village one sees in him just the son of lepers, in the claustrophobic winding lodge his deceased mother returns to the old woman under the earth to bring.

The late, there are stresses undercooled, only youth with the old girlfriend Hannah (Sophie Rois), he momentarily forgets the defense posture. Apparently the two share a secret, that's what creates itself in a such a kind of close to George. Otherwise, this is Father Frost nothing and no one ran in itself. Not the wife (Hilde Van Mieghem), which he in bed decrying the cold shoulder. Not the Son (Matthias Schweighöfer), under the architect specified by the producer career suffers. And not even the daughter (Sandra Hüller), whose infinite love for the father of the only moderately fond grummelnd is reciprocated.

And in the old jam jars and antique bodice full product despised by the mother house of the senses climber George's own course unsettledness most. Only one wish, he has: as quickly as possible out of the dump, in the course of Kondolenzbesuches threatening einschneit.

Women's Feeling for Snow White is amazing, she wrestles the fabric from all sorts of unconventional connotations. Husova alpenglow examined here in any case in vain. At the beginning you can see the whole winter clan and left naked by the morning before the snow mountain village hut hopping, but that virginity can not stop cold white; eiskristallklar coruscate here soon the family conflicts.

Sure, occasionally, the academic tyranny of the patriarch verbrämte arg so stereotypical. Is he the unloved son chosen to study architecture damn, the moderately talented daughter absolutely violin studies at the Conservatory on? The civic education Selbstzerfleischung (Written by: Daphne Charizani) is also, unfortunately, not always entirely sure dialog spread.

Its strength is developing "The Architect", this mountain world variation of Ingmar Bergmann's "silence", but when not much is spoken and the characters in abstruse activities aggression devote their car in order to break the silence.

How satisfied are Georgs wife in bed next to him, because he turns away disgusted. Thus the daughter of the son in the shower in the heel occur. A brutal ritual Infantiles, through which a deaf body to make sense of the rest will. When the old man is silent, you have the gift just different here.

What a beautiful, what a cruel drama Winter World: Father, mother, daughter, son? They were here for a list schockgefrostet family in all its neuroses.
